AA goes daily ex Dublin (6th May 2009)

Translogic courses approved for amended Air Cargo Security procedures (7th February 2009)
Dublin-based aviation security training provider Translogic has received approval from Ireland’s Department of Transport for its revised Air Cargo Security courses. Translogic has been providing training in aviation security since 2005. Following comprehensive re-writing, Translogic’s totally-revised training modules are now certified as complying with the amended guidelines set out by the EC300/2008 amendment to the original EC622/2003 regulations first introduced in 2005.
The air cargo security procedures were designed to ensure that there is no unauthorized interference representing a potential security threat to civil aviation movements. The procedures have now been supplemented and enhanced with additional measures, and set out clear lines of responsibility for all parties involved in the preparation, processing, transportation and loading of air cargo.
